Still got it!

Posted 06-26-2009 at 11:32 AM by Swam

About 2 months ago I took a break from wow. I'm still on that break but last night I logged on to say hi to people. Within 5 min of logging on i was not only swamped by tells, but got invited to an old friends guild.

They asked me if I wanted to do a quick heroic run with them, Its been 2 months since i tanked so i told them i would come as a dps. Being away for so long I didn't want to fail at tanking, pride at stake and all that.

So we get the group together and guess...

Nerfs and Bad Communication

Posted 06-26-2009 at 10:05 AM by michah

We completed Heroic: Firefighter on Sunday, and then finished our drakes on Wednesday by mopping up Heroic: One Light in the Darkness. It was great, we nerd cheered, and we failed miserably to a berserk timer on an Algalon fight that most folks look up to as the hardest fight in the zone - it isn't, just a heads up.

What I really want to touch on are the nerfs to some of the hardmodes. I love it. The one thing about finishing all the hard content, for me, is that I just want to...

Naxx DPS

Posted 06-26-2009 at 09:12 AM by Thireas (Protcore!)

I DPS'd Naxx last night. I was asked if I wanted to tank it, but I'm still pretty sure I'd get crushed if I did (the whole no parry/block thing kind of spooks me, being an ex-prot-warrior). I'd like to at least break 30k HP unbuffed before I try tanking Naxx. With the Shroud of Darkness from yesterday's VH, as well as my T7 shoulders from last night, I'm at about 29.1k.

I really think I helped more as DPS in Naxx than I would have as a tank. I did about 2700 DPS overall, and was only...

Time to go FULL TANK

Posted 06-26-2009 at 08:40 AM by Sylvaneart

My last guild hardly ever let me tank. Even though i was brought in as a tank I was told to go Kitty. This was mainly based on the fact I was top DPS in guild. I was ok at first with it until I was told Cat was my main and I would have to wait for off spec to roll tank gear. Over time my tanking belief in myself dwindled. Not tanking for whatever reason was eating at my confedence.

While being a druid alows me to collect gear that goes both ways I really lost out on trinkets. None...

OT: Celebrity Deathwatch

Posted 06-26-2009 at 07:48 AM by Horacio (I'm not a doctor but I play one in Wow.)

So, as conventional wisdom goes, celebrities die in threes and this theory passed the test this week when the King of Pop stepped up in the clutch, following Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett.

Yeah, I'm a cold hearted bastard but my general distaste for the general concept of celebrity comes to a head when one of them dies. You'd think the world was coming to an end if you bothered to turn on TV last night.

Apparently, Ed was a pretty good guy. He did alot of charity...
